In Python this can probably be done and perhaps is slightly more
readble with the "with" statement and a context manager:
def foo(param):
try:
with ResourceAllocator(50000) as resource:
resource[param] = 5
return 1
except:
return 0
Now I know I'm only adding to the discussion (argument) but
hey it's all in good fun until someone looses an eyeball!
